Synopsis:
For more than a hundred years, larger-than-life characters, many of whom are members of logging families that go back to the time when the West was being settled, have spent their days among towering trees and powerful machines and their nights in outposts far from the comforts of civilization. Snapped cables, runaway logs, and treacherous machinery are among the many dangers that threaten their lives and safety today. Going deeper into the forest, high into the sky, and even down into the sea, SEASON TWO of AX MEN follows two of last seasons leading teams along with three new companies including a team of diving loggers and another that uses helicopters to maximize its output as they race to fall the most timber during logging s most dangerous season. A series of fighting mechanical failures, relentless weather, and unpredictable terrain ensues witness with HISTORYTM how these brave men battle the elements, picking up where their fathers and grandfathers left off, to conquer America s final frontier. From the producers of Ice Road Truckers, the highest rated series on HISTORYTM, AX MEN follows teams of loggers performing one of the most dangerous jobs in the world and this time the competition is even tougher. Forget about hatchets, handsaws, and flannel-wearing lumberjacks. In year two of A&E's AX MEN, the loggers wield massive cutting-machines--and even helicopters--in their race to take down the most timber. Three new companies join the fray this season (including one team of diving loggers), and quickly get acquainted with the many dangers of the forest, from mechanical malfunctions to vicious, tree-ripping storms. This collection features 13 episodes from the show's second series.
